Which set is closed under the operation multiplication?

1 answer:

3 0

I have another set of choices here:

A. {0.5, 1, 2}

B. {1, 2, 4}

C. {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

D. {0}

If you multiply two numbers from a closed set the answer is in the set.
So A is not closed because 2 x 2 = 4 which isn't in the set. Only 0.5, 1, and 2 are in set A. 

Try multiplying the largest numbers in sets B, C, and D by themselves. You will soon discover the closed set.

what's the difference between (-4)^-3 and -4^-3. basically what's the difference when there's parenthesis for the base number?

NNADVOKAT [17]

(-4)^-3 = $\frac{1}{-64} or -0.015625$
-4^-3 = $\frac{1}{-64} or -0.015625$

Basically in this situation there is no difference whether parenthesis are used or not.

Write the equation of each line using the given information.

Leni [432]

a) x – 2y + 6 = 0 b) x + y = 1 c) y = 1 d) y = -3x + 8

<h3>Solution:</h3>

a. The points (-4,1) and (2,4) both lie on the line

The general line equation on which (a, b) and (c, d) lies is:

$y-\mathrm{b}=\frac{d-b}{c-a}(x - a)$

Here the given points are (a, b) = (-4, 1) and (c, d) = (2, 4)

Thus the required equation is:

$y-1=\frac{4-1}{2-(-4)}(x-(-4))$

On solving we get,

$\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow y-1=\frac{3}{2+4}(x+4)} \\\\ {\rightarrow y-1=\frac{3}{6}(x+4)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 2(y-1)=1(x+4)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 2 y-2=x+4} \\\\ {\rightarrow x-2 y+6=0}\end{array}$

b.) m= -1 and the point (2, -1) lies on the line

The equation of line in point slope form is y – b = m(x – a)

where m is slope and (a, b) is a point on it

Here m = -1 and (a, b) = (2, -1)

Thus the required equation is:

y – (-1) = -1(x - 2)

y + 1 = -x + 2

y = -x + 2 -1

y = -x + 1

c. )It has the same slope as y = 5 and passes through (1, 1)

our line has same slope with y = 5, then our equation would be y = k and it passes through (x, y) = (1, 1) so, then by substitution

1 = k

k =1

Then our equation will be y = k

y = 1

d. ) m= -3 and it has a y-intercept of (0, 8)

line equation in slope intercept form is y = mx + b where m is slope and b is y – intercept.

Then, our equation will be y = -3x + 8

We took y- intercept = 8 as it is the value of y when x = 0
